DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF DISCLOSED EMBODIMENTS

Please refer to FIG. 1 . A display panel 10 includes a circuit substrate 100, a light emitting diode 200, and a reflective layer 300. In the embodiment, the display panel 10 further includes a light absorbing layer 400 and an encapsulating layer 500.

The circuit substrate 100 has multiple pads 102 located on a top surface 100T thereof. In some embodiments, the circuit substrate 100 includes a substrate and an active element (not shown), a passive element (not shown), a signal line (not shown), an insulating layer (not shown), and the pads 102 formed on the substrate. The substrate is a soft substrate or a rigid substrate. For example, the substrate includes glass, quartz, organic polymer, wafer, ceramic, or other applicable materials.

The light emitting diode 200 includes a first semiconductor layer 210, a light emitting layer 220, and a second semiconductor layer 230. In the embodiment, the light emitting diode 200 further includes a first electrode 240, a second electrode 250, and an insulating layer 260.

The light emitting diode 200 includes a first semiconductor layer 210, a light emitting layer 220, and a second semiconductor layer 230 stacked sequentially. The light emitting layer 220 is located between the first semiconductor layer 210 and the second semiconductor layer 230. The second semiconductor layer 230 is located between the first semiconductor layer 210 and the circuit substrate 100. In the embodiment, an area of a vertical projection of the first semiconductor layer 210 on the circuit substrate 100 is greater than an area of a vertical projection of the second semiconductor layer 230 on the circuit substrate 100. An area of a vertical projection of the light emitting layer 220 on the circuit substrate 100 is equal to the area of the vertical projection of the second semiconductor layer 230 on the circuit substrate 100.

One of the first semiconductor layer 210 and the second semiconductor layer 230 is an n-type doped semiconductor, and the other one is a p-type doped semiconductor. The materials of the first semiconductor layer 210 and the second semiconductor layer 230 include, for example, GaN, InGaN, GaAs, AlGaInP, other materials composed of IIIA group and VA group elements, or other suitable materials, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. The light emitting layer 220 has, for example, a quantum well (QW), such as a single quantum well (SQW), a multiple quantum well (MQW), or other quantum wells. Electron hole provided by the p-type doped semiconductor layer and electrons provided by the n-type doped semiconductor layer may be combined in the light emitting layer 220 and release energy in a light mode. In some embodiments, the material of the light emitting layer 220 includes, for example, GaN, InGaN, GaAs, AlGaInP, InAlGaAs, other materials composed of IIIA group and VA group elements, or other suitable materials.

The first electrode 240 and the second electrode 250 are respectively electrically connected to the first semiconductor layer 210 and the second semiconductor layer 230. The first electrode 240 and the second electrode 250 each has a single-layer or multi-layer structure. In the embodiment, the first electrode 240 and the second electrode 250 are respectively electrically connected to the corresponding pads 102 through a first connecting structure S1 and a second connecting structure S2. The first connecting structure S1 and the second connecting structure S2 are, for example, solder, and include tin, indium, bismuth, tin-bismuth mixed metal, tin-indium mixed metal, tin-copper mixed metal, tin-silver mixed metal, tin-antimony mixed metal, tin-zinc mixed metal, tin-silver-copper mixed metal, tin-silver-copper-bismuth mixed metal, or a combination of the foregoing materials. In some embodiments, the method for forming the first connecting structure S1 and the second connecting structure S2 includes vapor deposition, electroplating, printing, ball mounting, or other suitable processes. In some embodiments, after respectively forming the first connecting structure S1 and the second connecting structure S2 on the first electrode 240 and the second electrode 250, the light emitting diode 200 is placed on the circuit substrate 100, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, after forming the first connecting structure S1 and the second connecting structure S2 on the pads 102 of the circuit substrate 100, the light emitting diode 200 is placed on the circuit substrate 100. The first connecting structure S1 and the second connecting structure S2 are heated through laser, hot pressing, or other manners, so that the light emitting diode 200 is bonded to the circuit substrate 100. In other embodiments, the light emitting diode 200 is bonded to the circuit substrate 100 through other conductive connecting structures (for example, anisotropic conductive adhesive). In this case, the first connecting structure S1 and the second connecting structure S2 may be omitted.

The insulating layer 260 is located on a side wall 200S of the light emitting diode 200. For example, the insulating layer 260 is located on a side wall of the first semiconductor layer 210, a side wall of the light emitting layer 220, and a side wall of the second semiconductor layer 230. The insulating layer 260 has the functions of insulation and reflection, and helps guide light to a top surface of the light emitting diode 200. In some embodiments, the insulating layer 260 can prevent the reflective layer 300 from contacting the side walls of the first semiconductor layer 210, the light emitting layer 220, and the second semiconductor layer 230, thereby reducing the negative impact of the reflective layer 300 on the luminous efficiency of the light emitting diode 200. In some embodiments, a thickness H0 of the insulating layer 260 is 0.01 μm to 2 μm. In some embodiments, the insulating layer 260 includes a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR), AlN, Al₂O₃, or other suitable materials. In some embodiments, the insulating layer 260 may be used as a repair layer for repairing damage to semiconductor materials or as a reflective layer for reflecting rays.

The reflective layer 300 is located on the circuit substrate 100. The reflective layer 300 includes a first base material 310 and multiple reflective microstructures 320. The first base material 310 is, for example, a solid organic material. For example, the first base material 310 is solid epoxy, silicone, or other elastic materials. The reflective microstructures 320 are distributed in the first base material 310. The reflective microstructures 310 include porous inorganic particles, hollow polymer particles, or air. In some embodiments, the reflective microstructures 310 are porous (or air-containing) SiO₂, TiO₂, Al₂O₃, CaCO₃, BaSO₄, or other materials. In some embodiments, the reflective microstructures 310 are hollow polymer particles, and polymer shells thereof include polystyrene (PS), poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), polycarbonate (PC), modified silicone (MS), or other materials. The reflectivity of the reflective layer 300 is positively correlated with the concentration of reflective particles and the thickness of the reflective layer. In the embodiment, the reflectivity of the reflective layer 300 to visible light is greater than 50%.

In the embodiment, the reflective layer 300 is in contact with a part of the side surface 200S of the light emitting diode 200. A part of the reflective layer 300 is located between a bottom surface 200B of the light emitting diode 200 and the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100. In some embodiments, the particle size of the reflective microstructure 320 is 0.1 μm to 2 μm. The particle size of the reflective microstructure 320 is less than a gap between the light emitting diode 200 and the circuit substrate 100. Therefore, the reflective microstructure 320 may be filled between the light emitting diode 200 and the circuit substrate 100.

Taking a direction HD perpendicular to the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 as a height direction, a horizontal height of a top surface 300T of the reflective layer 300 is located between a horizontal height of a top surface 220T of the light emitting layer 220 and a horizontal height of a top surface 200T of the light emitting diode 200 (that is, a top surface of the first semiconductor layer in the embodiment). Based on this, the reflective layer 300 may effectively reflect rays emitted by the light emitting layer 220, thereby improving the luminous efficiency of the light emitting diode 200.

The light absorbing layer 400 is located on the top surface 300T of the reflective layer 300. In the embodiment, the light absorbing layer 400 and the reflective layer 300 are both in contact with the side surface 200S of the light emitting diode 200. The light absorbing layer 400 includes a second base material 410 and multiple light absorbing particles 420. The second base material 410 includes a material the same as or different from the first base material 310. For example, the second base material 410 is solid epoxy, silicone, or other elastic materials. The light absorbing particles 420 are distributed in the second base material 410.

In some embodiments, the light absorbing particles 420 include carbon, chromium, light absorbing dyes similar to filter elements, or other light absorbing materials. In the embodiment, the reflectivity of the reflective layer 300 to visible light is greater than the reflectivity of the light absorbing layer 400. In some embodiments, the transmittance of the light absorbing layer 400 is less than 20%.

In some embodiments, a vertical distance between the top surface 400T of the light absorbing layer 400 and the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 is H1. The vertical distance H1 is greater than the thickness H0 of the insulating layer 260. In some embodiments, the vertical distance H1 is 3 μm to 15 μm. A vertical distance between the top surface 300T of the reflective layer 300 and the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 is H1′. The vertical distance H1 is greater than the vertical distance H1′. A vertical distance between the top surface 220T of the light emitting layer 220 and the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 is H1″. The vertical distance H1′ is greater than the vertical distance H1″.

A vertical distance between the top surface 200T of the light emitting diode 200 and the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 is H2. In some embodiments, the vertical distance H2 is 7 μm to 10 μm. In some embodiments, 20%≤H1/H2≤150%, thereby improving the efficiency of the light emitting diode 200. In a case where the vertical distance H1 is greater than the vertical distance H2 (that is, 100%≤H1/H2≤150%), the light absorbing layer 400 has openings (not shown) exposing the top surface 200T of the light emitting diode 200, and the openings prevent the top surface 200T of the light emitting diode 200 from being completely covered by the light absorbing layer 400. For example, in the case where the vertical distance H1 is greater than the vertical distance H2, an area of the top surface 200T of the light emitting diode 200 covered by the light absorbing layer 400 does not exceed 50% of the entire top surface 200T. In addition, if H1/H2 is less than 20%, the process precision requirement of the light absorbing layer 400 needs to be very high. If the light absorbing layer 400 is too thin, the reflective layer 300 under the light absorbing layer 400 may be easily exposed, which causes the reflective layer 300 to reflect external ambient light and affects the quality of a display image.

The encapsulating layer 500 is located on the light absorbing layer 400. In some embodiments, the encapsulating layer 500 includes a material the same as or different from the first base material 310 and/or the second base material 410. In some embodiments, 0≤the transmittance of the light absorbing layer 400/the transmittance of the encapsulating layer 500<40%. In a preferred embodiment, the transmittance of the encapsulating layer 500 to visible light is greater than the transmittance of the light absorbing layer 400 to visible light and the transmittance of the reflective layer 300 to visible light. In some embodiments, the transmittance of the encapsulating layer 500 is greater than 50%.

Please refer to FIG. 2B and FIG. 2C. The reflective layer 300 is formed on the circuit substrate 100.

Please refer to FIG. 2B first. After placing the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c and the circuit substrate 100 are placed in a first mold M1. A reflective material 300P is filled in the first mold M1. The reflective material 300P is coated around the

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c. For example, the reflective material 300P is coated around the top surfaces 200T and the side surfaces 200S of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c.

In the embodiment, the reflective material 300P includes a first base material 310P and the reflective microstructures 320. The first base material 310P is, for example, a colloidal or liquid organic material. For example, the first base material 310P includes epoxy, silicone, organic solvent, and/or other materials. The reflective microstructures 320 are distributed in the first base material 310P. The reflective microstructures 310 include porous inorganic particles or hollow polymer particles.

In the embodiment, the reflective material 300P is only formed on the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 corresponding to the

light emitting diodes

The reflective material 300P is cured. For example, the first base material 310P is cured at high temperature or normal temperature.

Please refer to FIG. 2C. After curing the reflective material 300P, the first mold M1 is removed. In the embodiment, after removing the first mold M1, the cured reflective material 300P covers the top surfaces 200T of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c. An etching process PM1 is executed on the cured reflective material 300P to form the reflective layer 300 exposing the top surfaces 200T of the

In some embodiments, when the reflective microstructures 320 in the reflective material 300P are inorganic materials, a part of the reflective microstructures 320 will remain on the top surfaces 200T of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c and the top surface 300T of the reflective layer 300 after executing the etching process PM1. Therefore, after executing the etching process PM1, a cleaning process is selectively executed on the top surfaces 200T of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c and the top surface 300T of the reflective layer 300 to remove the redundant reflective microstructures 320.

Please refer to FIG. 2D and FIG. 2E. The light absorbing layer 400 is formed on the reflective layer 300.

Please refer to FIG. 2D first. The

light emitting diodes

For example, the second base material 410P includes epoxy, silicone, organic solvent, and/or other materials. The light absorbing particles 420 are distributed in the second base material 410P. In some embodiments, the light absorbing particles 420 include carbon, chromium, light absorbing dyes similar to filter elements, or other light absorbing materials.

In the embodiment, the light absorbing material 400P is formed on the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 and the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100. The reflective layer 300 is located between the light absorbing material 400P and the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100. In some embodiments, the reflective layer 300 is also located between the light absorbing material 400P and the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100.

The light absorbing material 400P is cured. For example, the second base material 410P is cured at high temperature or normal temperature.

Please refer to FIG. 2E. After curing the light absorbing material 400P, the second mold M2 is removed. In the embodiment, after removing the second mold M2, the cured light absorbing material 400P covers the top surfaces 200T of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c. An etching process PM2 is executed on the cured reflective material 400P to form the light absorbing layer 400 exposing the top surfaces 200T of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c. In some embodiments, the etching process PM2 includes, for example, a plasma etching process. In the embodiment, the light absorbing layer 400 also exposes a part of the side surfaces 200S of the

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c.

In some embodiments, when the light absorbing particles 420 in the light absorbing material 400P are inorganic materials, a part of the light absorbing particles 420 will remain on the top surfaces 200T of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c and the top surface 400T of the light absorbing layer 400 after executing the etching process PM2. Therefore, a cleaning process is executed on the top surfaces 200T of the

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c and the top surface 400T of the light absorbing layer 400 to remove the redundant light absorbing particles 420.

In some embodiments, a side surface 500S of the encapsulating layer 500 is cut, so that the side surface 500S of the encapsulating layer 500 becomes a relatively flat surface. So far, the display panel 10 is roughly completed. In some embodiments, an encapsulating material is formed on the circuit substrate 100. Then, the encapsulating material is cropped to form the encapsulating layer 500, and the cropping surface is the side surface 500S of the encapsulating layer 500. In the embodiment, the light absorbing layer 400 completely covers a side surface of the reflective layer 300, so that the side surface of the reflective layer 300 is not exposed.

In some embodiments, the encapsulating layer 500 also contains a small amount of light absorbing particles. However, the transmittance of the encapsulating layer 500 is greater than the transmittance of the light absorbing layer 400.

In some embodiments, a vertical distance between a top surface 500T of the encapsulating layer 500 and the top surfaces 200T of the

The vertical distance H4 is less than the vertical distance H5.

In some embodiments, 0%≤H4/H5≤100%, wherein when the top surface 400T of the light absorbing layer 400 is higher than the top surfaces 200T of the

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c, and the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c are water vapor resistant, the encapsulating layer 500 may be selectively not formed on the circuit substrate 100, and 0%=H4/H5 at this time. In a case where there is the encapsulating layer 500, if H4>H5, rays emitted by the light emitting diode 200 c may be totally reflected on the surface of the encapsulating layer 500, which causes the issue of color shift. In some embodiments, the vertical distance H4 is 10 μm to 150 μm. In some embodiments, the vertical distance H5 is 50 μm to 500 μm.

Based on the above, by the configuration of the reflective layer 300, the brightness of the display panel 10 can be improved. In addition, the light absorbing layer 400 on the reflective layer 300 may be used to prevent external ambient light from being reflected by the reflective layer 300, thereby improving the display quality.

Please refer to FIG. 2G. The display panel 10 is fixed on a connector TS to be bonded to a connector TS' and a display panel 10′ to form a spliced display device 1. In the embodiment, the display panel 10′ has the same structure as the display panel 10. The display panel 10 will be exemplified below for description.

In some embodiments, a vertical distance between the side surface 500S of the display panel 10 (in the embodiment, the side surface 500S of the display panel 10 is the side surface 500S of the encapsulating layer 500) and the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100 is H6. In some embodiments, 50%≤H3/H6≤100%. In the embodiment where the encapsulating layer 500 is not formed on the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100, the side surface 500S of the display panel 10 is the side surface 400S of the light absorbing layer 400. In other words, in a preferred embodiment, the encapsulating layer 500 does not cover the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100, and H3=H6 in this case. In some embodiments, an encapsulating material is cropped to form the encapsulating layer 500. If the cropping position is located on the light absorbing layer 400, the cropped encapsulating layer 500 exposes the light absorbing layer 400, and H3=H6 at this time. In some embodiments, the vertical distance H6 is 20 μm to 100 μm. Since 50%≤H3/H6≤100%, a gap between the display panel 10′ and the display panel 10 may not easily transmit light, so that the gap between the display panel 10′ and the display panel 10 may not be easily seen, thereby obtaining the advantage of seamless splicing.

In some embodiments, a distance between the display panel 10′ and the display panel 10 is H7. In some embodiments, 25 μm≤H6+H7/2≤100 μm. In a preferred implementation, 25 μm≤H6+H7/2≤50 μm, so that the gap between the display panel 10′ and the display panel 10 is not easily seen, and a side wall of the circuit substrate 100 of the display panel 10′ and a side wall of the circuit substrate 100 of the display panel 10 can be prevented from colliding with each other. In some embodiments, a distance H7 between the display panel 10′ and the display panel 10 is 10 μm to 90 μm.

Based on the above, the spliced display device 1 has the advantage of seamless splicing.

FIG. 3A to FIG. 3C are cross-sectional schematic views of a manufacturing method of a display panel according to an embodiment of the disclosure. It must be noted here that the embodiment of FIG. 3A to FIG. 3C continues to use the reference numerals and some content of the embodiment of FIG. 2A to FIG. 2F, wherein the same or similar reference numerals are adopted to denote the same or similar elements, and the description of the same technical content is omitted. For the description of the omitted parts, reference may be made to the foregoing embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

Please refer to FIG. 3A. After placing the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c on the circuit substrate 100, a reflective layer 300 a is formed on the circuit substrate 100. The method for forming the reflective layer 300 a includes inkjet printing. The reflective layer 300 a includes the first base material 310 and the reflective microstructures 320 dispersed in the first base material 310.

In the embodiment, the reflective layer 300 a is formed on the top surface 100T and the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100. The reflective layer 300 a covers the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100. In the embodiment, the reflective layer 300 a selectively covers the side surface 1005 of the circuit substrate 100. In some embodiments, the reflective layer 300 a formed by inkjet printing flows to the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100, so that a side surface 300S of the reflective layer 300 a covers the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100. Compared with the reflective layer 300 formed by the molding process of FIG. 2B, the side surface 300S of the reflective layer 300 a formed by inkjet printing may be an uneven surface and is not limited to a flat surface shown in FIG. 3A.

The reflective layer 300 a exposes the top surfaces 200T of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c. The reflective layer 300 a is in contact with a part of the side surfaces 200S of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c, and a part of the reflective layer 300 a is located between the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c and the circuit substrate 100, wherein taking the direction HD perpendicular to the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 as the height direction, a horizontal height of a top surface of the reflective layer 300 a is located between the horizontal height of the top surface of the light emitting layer of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c and the horizontal height of the top surfaces 200T of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c.

Please refer to FIG. 3B. A light absorbing layer 400 a is formed on the reflective layer 300. The method for forming the light absorbing layer 400 a includes inkjet printing. The light absorbing layer 400 a includes the second base material 410 and the light absorbing particles 420 dispersed in the second base material 410.

The light absorbing layer 400 a covers the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 and the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100. In some embodiments, the light absorbing layer 400 a formed by inkjet printing flows to the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100 (or the side surface 300S of the reflective layer 300 a), so that the side surface 400S of the light absorbing layer 400 a covers the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100 (or the side surface 300S of the reflective layer 300 a). Compared with the light absorbing layer 400 formed by the molding process of FIG. 2D, the side surface 400S of the light absorbing layer 400 a formed by inkjet printing is, for example, an uneven surface.

Please refer to FIG. 3C. The encapsulating layer 500 is selectively formed on the light absorbing layer 400 a. At this point, a display device 10 a is roughly completed.

In the embodiment, the shortest vertical distance between the side surface 400S of the light absorbing layer 400 and the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100 is H3. The vertical distance between the side surface 500S of the display panel 10 a (in the embodiment, the side surface 500S of the display panel 10 a is the side surface 500S of the encapsulating layer 500) and the side surface 100S of the circuit substrate 100 is H6. In some embodiments, 50%≤H3/H6≤100%. In the embodiment, the encapsulating layer 500 and/or the light absorbing layer 400 completely cover the side surface 300S of the reflective layer 300 a, so that the side surface 300S of the reflective layer 300 a is not exposed.

FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional schematic view of a display panel according to an embodiment of the disclosure. It must be noted here that the embodiment of FIG. 4 continues to use the reference numerals and some content of the embodiment of FIG. 1 , wherein the same or similar reference numerals are adopted to denote the same or similar elements, and the description of the same technical content is omitted. For the description of the omitted parts, reference may be made to the foregoing embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

The main difference between a display panel 10 b of FIG. 4 and the display panel 10 of FIG. 1 is that the display panel 10 b further includes a black barrier structure 600. In some embodiments, the transmittance of the black barrier structure 600 to visible light is less than 50%, and the reflectivity is less than 20%. In some embodiments, the material of the black barrier structure 600 is the same as or different from the material of the light absorbing layer 400.

Please refer to FIG. 4 . The black barrier structure 600 surrounds the reflective layer 300. The black barrier structure 600 and the light emitting diode 200 are separated by the reflective layer 300. The black barrier structure 600 is adapted to shield a reflective material (for example, a metal signal line) in the circuit substrate 100, thereby preventing the reflective material in the circuit substrate 100 from affecting the display image.

The vertical distance between the top surface 400T of the light absorbing layer 400 and the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 is H1. A vertical distance between a top surface 600T of the black barrier structure 600 and the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 is H8. The vertical distance H1 is greater than or equal to the vertical distance H8. In the embodiment, the vertical distance H1 is greater than the vertical distance H8.

The vertical distance between the top surface 220T of the light emitting layer 220 and the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 is H1″. In some embodiments, the difference between the vertical distance H1 and the vertical distance H1″ is only 3 μm to 5 μm. Therefore, the film thickness of the light absorbing layer 400 is not easy to control. The black barrier structure 600 is formed on a part where the light emitting diode 200 does not need to be disposed, which may prevent the issue of the light absorbing layer 400 being penetrated and exposing the reflective layer 300 underneath due to process errors of the light absorbing layer 400. In other words, by the configuration of the black barrier structure 600, on the part where the light emitting diode 200 is not disposed, the reflective layer 300 will not be exposed even if the light absorbing layer 400 is penetrated.

In the embodiment, the light absorbing layer 400 covers the top surface 300T of the reflective layer 300 around the light emitting diode 200 and crosses over an interface between the reflective layer 300 and the black barrier structure 600 closest to the light emitting diode 200.

Taking the direction HD perpendicular to the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 as the height direction, the horizontal height of the top surface 300T of the reflective layer 300 is located between the horizontal height of the top surface 220T of the light emitting layer 220 and the horizontal height of the top surface 200T of the light emitting diode 200 (that is, the top surface of the first semiconductor layer 210 in the embodiment). Based on this, the reflective layer 300 may effectively reflect rays emitted by the light emitting layer 220, thereby improving the luminous efficiency of the light emitting diode 200.

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c. The etching process PM1 is executed on the cured reflective material 300P to form the reflective layer 300 exposing the top surfaces 200T of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c. In some embodiments, the reflective layer 300 selectively exposes the top surface 600T of the black barrier structure 600. In some embodiments, the top surface 300T of the reflective layer 300 is equal to or lower than the top surface 600T of the black barrier structure 600. In the embodiment, the top surface 300T of the reflective layer 300 is equal to the top surface 600T of the black barrier structure 600, and the black barrier structure 600 surrounds the reflective layer 300.

In the embodiment, taking the direction HD perpendicular to the top surface 100T of the circuit substrate 100 as the height direction, the horizontal height of the top surface 300T of the reflective layer 300 is located between the horizontal height of the top surface of the light emitting layer of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c, wherein the reflective layer 300 is in contact with a part of the side surfaces of the

light emitting diodes

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c. In some embodiments, the light absorbing material 400P is in contact with the top surface 600T of the black barrier structure 600, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.

Next, the light absorbing material 400P is cured.

Please refer to FIG. 5D. After curing the light absorbing material 400P, the second mold M2 is removed. In the embodiment, after removing the second mold M2, the cured light absorbing material 400P covers the top surfaces 200T of the

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c. The etching process PM2 is executed on the cured reflective material 400P to form the light absorbing layer 400 exposing the top surfaces 200T of the

light emitting diodes

200 a, 200 b, and 200 c. In other embodiments, the light absorbing layer 400 also exposes the top surface 600T of the black barrier structure 600.

Please refer to FIG. 5E. The encapsulating layer 500 is formed on the light absorbing layer 400. So far, the display panel 10 b is roughly completed.

For the description of the omitted parts, reference may be made to the foregoing embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

The main difference between a display panel 10 c of FIG. 6 and the display panel 10 b of FIG. 4 is that a part of the reflective layer 300 of the display panel 10 c covers the top surface 600T of the black barrier structure 600.
